A wonderful little treasure
I spent one very happy week at The Island Hotel Bali! The rooms are clean, cool and comfortable. The pool and adjacent lounge are a quiet refuge after a busy day at the beach. There are lots of great restaurants in the area and the hotel’s breakfast is really good. The staff are very kind and knowledgeable and arrange transport anywhere one may want to go. The location is really great down a little path away from the busy street so it os nice and quiet but still near all the action!

Quiet and friendly in the middle of Kuta.
Great stay in a private room here. It’s off the main strips and is therefore lovely and tranquil when you need to escape the noise of Kuta.

Excellent place with great people
Simple, clean, and very conveniently-located place with wonderful staff and management (warm, friendly, welcoming, and helpful at all times), good food, and great common spaces for relaxing and meeting new people. I had an excellent stay and will definitely return.

For a hostel the Island Hotel Bali took me by surprise, with a very warm welcome and spacious surrounds. It is located down a back street and can be hard to find, but this means that it is very quiet at all times of the day if you want to catch up on sleep or chill out. The dorm room is large, as are the beds, and has a bathroom that would not be out of place in a hotel room. The swimming pool is nice and the hostel has plenty of places to hang out and meet other travellers. Recommended!

Best hostel in Bali!
Everything about this hostel is amazing. They make you feel right at home with overly friendly staff and a beautiful and relaxing common sitting area where it is easy to meet new people. The beds are comfortable and cleaned for you every day. Aircon is good. Pool is nice. Restaurant is great and really affordable. 5 minute walk to the beach where you can surf. Just over the top great place to stay

Really great deal, close to the beach, and the staff and other travellers tend to be really amazing to hang out with. The pool is lovely and the staff is happy to help you with tours or advice. Clean and comfy!

Best Hostel I've ever stayed at
This place is awesome. The staff are very friendly and there is a nice communal atmosphere with the people staying there. I stayed in a smaller private room, it was great, clean, good aircon and shower. I would highly reccomend.

Nice hostel in good location!
This hostel is perfect for relaxing and meeting new people. It's in a busy area but the overall vibe is super chill. The pool area is really nice; there's also a cool patio upstairs. Bathrooms are the only thing that could use a makeover but other than that everything is great. I've been here over a week and am enjoying my stay. They also provide a simple free breakfast which is tasty.

One of my favorite hostels
Originally I was just going to stay a couple nights but the hostel was so comfortable I stayed almost a week and kept coming back. Beds are super soft and clean. Pool is great. Rooftop area and eating area are very nice to chill and meet a lot of great people. Good cheap eats nearby and an easy going vibe in legian beach relative to surrounding kuta and seminyak. The family running the place is so nice and recommended local events like the Bali arts festival. Overall one of the best hostels I have stayed at.

Perfect value!
3 of my friends and I rented the private dorm which has 4 beds and a bathroom inside the room. The beds were comfy and the rooms were nice and clean. The layout of the common rooms is really nice and inviting, and I really enjoyed sitting by the pool. The location was perfect for everything we wanted! I would definitely suggest booking this hotel! Although we stayed in a private dorm and not the regular dorm, others said it was comfortable and roomy.

Deluxe room: cannot sleep in the morning
The hotel and the deluxe room were great, clean and good to meet other travelers. BUT there is a dog in a cage directly down the window of the deluxe room that starts to bark at 5am, which makes it _really hard_ to sleep in the morning. The dog's owner didn't care, so I doubt it will change in the future. Don't get the deluxe room, stick to standard rooms (they are a bit small though).

Island Hotel Bali
Never been to bali so was not sure to expect. This place exceeded my expectations. The free breakfast is not very big but it does not cost much to buy more. The staff are very friendly and very helpful in arranging for cheap transport and activities.

Brilliant - stay here!
I'm a female solo traveller and the island was perfect! Cool people, great facilities, really nice and clean - probably the only issue was that taxi drivers don't really know where it is as it is a bit tucked away.

Good budget place
Good budget place. There are private rooms and dorms. Very quiet, tucked away. Neighbourhood is safe. There's a very small pool which is randomly quite deep. Fairly social atmosphere. The hostel can organise activities, trips etc. Decent free breakfast too.

Upset!
I really upset about the island Bali . The reception is good and friendly but they made a big mistake! First of all , I bought six nights , it's a private room twin beds . But! The first day , 10/5, I check in a four beds share room . Reception although apologize nonstop for their careless that did not keep the private room for me. I still already paid the much expensive price for a twin beds private room. Ok, the second day I move to my private room no.3 , the shower room is leaking from the top making floor so wet leading me could fall down several times! And the pics from hotel. Com seem cheat us to believe in they're good and comfortable! The worst of all is ,15/5 , Sunday night, there was no water to take shower . I told to the staff they're not able to fix the problems until Monday morning they ask others outsider to fix it. I can't describe that couldn't take a shower after fool around and sweating in Bali one day . How dirty am I , and I have to tolerate to sleep without taking a bath! It's an nightmare ! Please, let me know how to refund me the price difference about the first night! Thanks!
